uTorrent had links to a Manual of Ugaritic PDF (by Bourdreuil and Pardee, but the English translation, please-my French isn't that good) for download, but it's been taken down for copyright infringement. Anyone have a copy, or know where to get one?

Is there a comprehensive catalog of the things linked on the zillion pages of this thread? That'd make finding things much easier after all...

I'll try and do it tonight, with dead links indicated.

Please, if you do so, tag the files as well, so one can maybe sort them according to topic

It'd be awesome!

Many of the links are included in the KQ Natlang Resources article already, but that list would definitely benefit from being updated.

OK, here's the catalog.
Note that this thread is so huge that it will take a while for this to be finished, so please be patient. Defunct links are followed by an asterisk.

Kamusi online dictionary
German Conjunctions
Japanese Adjectives
Jim Breen's Japanese Page
Creative Relaxation Exercise Language Learning for Aid Workers
YourDictionary
Online Language Dictionaries and Translators
English-Chinese Online Dictionary
Pinyin English-Chinese Dictionary
Some University of Indiana radio station, which is now defunct.*
A site on Tibetan Calligraphy, now gone. *
Something from Cornell, now gone.*
Something that was once on Spanish.*
Digitized German-language version of the Brothers' Grimm German dictionary.
Sanskrit Grammar
An Old High German Primer
Radio stations from around the world

Yeesh, that's all for right now...it's a gigantic task that would go much faster if you'd be so kind as to do some section of the thread, put code blocks around it, and message it to me.

African influence in Gullah. A good resource if you want to do a creole.

A grammar of Kokota, an Austronesian language in the Solomons.

TomHChappell · Post by **TomHChappell** » Fri May 21, 2010 3:57 pm

I find all three of the last three resources very interesting

@Vardelm, I especially needed the one you provided a link to, Typology of Ergativity by William McGregor

Thanks, Vardelm and Daquarious.

Was that really helpful? Surely explanations of what is in the links is better than just a list of links? And was there any point in reposting the same links?

The point was that a link that contains parentheses can't be followed; you have to replace ( with %28 and ) with %29 for it to work.
Also, you should surround the link with "[ url]" and "[ /url]" to be sure it can be followed.

Click on
http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/lin/nomz/nomz%20 ... tti_tb.pdf
and see that it doesn't work.

Now click on
http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/lin/nomz/nomz%20 ... tti_tb.pdf
and see that it does.

The best thing to do is preview your post before posting it. If your link doesn't look right you need to edit it. (Apostrophes in links don't work either, for instance.)

I hoped that it would really be helpful. I'm sorry if it wasn't.
